Treated myself 1/1 scale pick it up March

You got one letter wrong in the number plate, though

 

[Guest]

Hmmm, number 007...
... "The name's Bond...Kurt Bond"

Michael Bond, really, I suppose.

Decided to try this after watching Night Shift on UTube

Hopefully will be useful in dioramas.

Best filler I’ve used. Sticks superbly and sands to a real feather edged glass finish. Not sure how you’d use it in dios though, it dries quite quickly so the working time is short.

Designed to go on a bookshelf between the books isn’t it? Ive been tempted by book knooks for a while but never quite bitten the bullet….

Yes , will be fun to do .Had a quick look in the box Tim, possibly the best comprehensive instructions you could hope for. Lots of bit of paper to wrap into shape of flowers and the contents of the actual green house .

Have to thin it down first and then apply it to the XPS foam after its been scribed. It allows a harder texture to be made to the surface. Time will tell how it appeals to me , but can see the benefits. Not the thing you can put on and wonder off for a cup of tea then :surprised:

It’s cellulose based John, so test it on foam as you may end up with a gooey mess.
If you find it doesn’t work as you want it too there are many other putty’s out there as I’m sure you know. For what you’ve just described you might be better off with something from the Mr Surfacer range? Milliput might be useful as well.
Just remember, if it doesn’t work you’ll still have two tubes of one of the best filler putties on the market :thumb2:

Good stuff JR, use it myself and can be thinned with IPA to make a thinner filler, smells a bit but works better than the magic mushrooms man.....

Bought this little lot back in August but haven't posted yet. Had a nice little drive to Casnterbury to collect them. At the rate I build these will last me about a century I should think!

Happy New Year!
